cover lock

[txtazd]

I have an ipad2 but when i go to settings/general there is not a cover lock on/off option. I have os5. any suggestions?

Do you have the iPad Smart Cover?

This has to be fitted first before that option becomes visible.

I've never had a smart cover and my Settings show the option under Auto-Lock and Passcode Lock. This is on iPad 2 on iOS 5.

If I remember correctly, Tim has an iPad 1. On my iPad 1 on iOS5, it's as Tim says; the smart cover option isn't showing in Settings.

OP, do you already have a smart cover and the option isn't showing? Maybe try resetting your iPad? If you don't already have a smart cover, maybe you could borrow one or try one at a store, see whether it will trigger on the option?

And yet you're among the sites most prolific posters. All hail the trailing edge of technology.
BTW I've participated in many forums over the years and this one's fun AND useful.
